Seemed be on the grounds of my childhood (and current) home. A woman visited, bringing an ill-behaved small horse or pony...who scared off one female cat (she seemed to me to have been brought from elsewhere recently). I later (late enough so I felt Guilty for not going sooner) went calling for the cat, but she didn't re-appear...though several others (strangers, or strays) did.
Went by car to a restaurant and/or resort area to meet up with a guy I was dating. He may have been an employee or part of a family that owned a or that restaurant. Seemed to be a public/bank holiday; lots of people seemed to be out and about, enjoying themselves. But also could have been just a weekend (with lots of people out, looking for a place to brunch). I may have been (or felt) a bit late, so I apologized a bit, but when I met up wit the guy, felt pretty secure in a lean-against-him-without-self-consciusness type of way. Got the impression that he was a 'less rough-edged Kamen' - actual thought during the dream - (name of an actual, former Bulgarian grad student apartment mate who eventually became a problem roommate).
Saw there were cats in the restaurant (which wouldn't be allowed in an equivalent contemporary restaurant), but I assumed they were there to keep vermin out after hours. One cat first appeared from under a table or bench, looking for affection (I got the impression that this cat was on her way to becoming internet-famous), but several others soon showed up. In other words...he was a 'cat person' (always a good recommendation).

Impression of being outside in the neighborhood I grew up in and seeing some guys remove a whole herd of cats, from babies to adults. I took them and was trying to take them to a safe place, but I may have beem trying to take care of them myself for the moment.

In an interior with some other people hanging about. Ended up talking to several ladies, one of whom felt 'Mom'-ish about librarianship. Near the end, not that a library needs to become aware of the needs of its constituency, and then see if it can fulfill any. A pretty basic, general understanding, but at least I had it. I decided then to 'make my bed', i.e., grab a few items on a bed-like area in order to make it neater.

Forgot to unplug the wireless router last night; sure enough, my dreams included an unpleasant sequence wherein I was somewhere but with my two cats who have died in past years. However, I was anxious as they'd both gone missing. Got the impression that someone claimed to me that one had been killed by some nasty character, but that turned out to not be true, and I was so grateful when Janie showed up whole and okay. But then still had to find Jasmine... So, a generally unpleasant tinge (and possibly harassment) to those dreams.
Visited two young (teen?) sisters in a bus or van type vehicle. They had two cats (maybe some type of siamese, but if so, less conventional than, say, seal points) they quite liked. I came over to see them, and one cat sniffed at me. I ventured further in to the vehicle, and, bizarrely, found that they were 'milking' those cats. I mean they were pets, but they also milked them. Then one sister seemed to get a bit self conscious, and said she was going up (as if into an attic?) to get something. (A hat??) but almost as if she'd picked upon my confusion about the cat milking. Perhaps it had made her self conscious too.
Much more dreamaage; this is the only thing that stands out.

Wandered a warren-like interior, with varying levels (impression of stairs) that contained various people and animals. i played with something that either was, or reminded me of my cat. (Sort of a hide and seek game). At one point, ended up sitting near a group of folk who resembled the Star Trek the Next Generation characters. Was waiting for my cat friends to find me (may have been a restaurant or some dining area) and listening to the group talk. I had this "How did I ever think they were just 'good'?" attitude (shades of someone online pointing out the program was essentially bout a subtly imperialist culture that in its own way wanted everyone else to conform to their wishes). I was essentially hearing them talk and them seeming to confirm that they had that kind of attitude.Then the cat(s) found me, and I was pleased (maybe that it took them a while to track me down).
